Scottish Inshore Fisheries Integrated Data System (SIFIDS): work package 8B final report identifying fishing activities and their associated drivers

[Extract from Executive Summary] This Work Package (WP8B) of the SIFIDS project focused on vessels that are 12 m or under in length, use static gear (pots or creels), and primarily target lobsters (Homarus gammarus), crabs (Cancer pagurus and Necora puber), and prawns (Nephrops norvegicus). WP8B had two principal objectives: 1. Identify fishing activity profiles for static gear vessels in the inshore fleet prosecuting lobsters, crabs and nephrops. 2. Incorporate effort, biological data, socio-economic data, environmental data to understand fishing behaviour
